Hes1: a key role in stemness, metastasis and multidrug resistance

Cancer Biology & Therapy
Zi-Hao LiuBin Du

Abstract

Hes1 is one mammalian counterpart of the Hairy and Enhancer of split proteins that play a critical role in many physiological processes including cellular differentiation, cell cycle arrest, apoptosis and self-renewal ability. Recent studies have shown that Hes1 functions in the maintenance of cancer stem cells (CSCs), metastasis and antagonizing drug-induced apoptosis. Pathways that are involved in the up-regulation of Hes1 level canonically or non-canonically, such as the Hedgehog, Wnt and hypoxia pathways are frequently aberrant in cancer cells. Here, we summarize the recent data supporting the idea that Hes1 may have an important function in the maintenance of cancer stem cells self-renewal, cancer metastasis, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process induction, as well as chemotherapy resistance, and conclude with the possible mechanisms by which Hes1 functions have their effect, as well as their crosstalk with other carcinogenic signaling pathways.

CREs: Gene & Cell Therapy

Gene and cell therapy advances have shown promising outcomes for several diseases. The role of cis-regulatory elements (CREs) is crucial in the design of gene therapy vectors. Here is the latest research on CREs in gene and cell therapy.

Apoptosis in Cancer

Apoptosis is an important mechanism in cancer. By evading apoptosis, tumors can continue to grow without regulation and metastasize systemically. Many therapies are evaluating the use of pro-apoptotic activation to eliminate cancer growth. Here is the latest research on apoptosis in cancer.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
